LA Symphony - Hold On
(from the album Disappear Here)
© copyright 2005

CHORUS:
Hold on my homies in the middle of the night (Hold on)
Hold on my people in the thick of the fight (Hold on)
Hold on my friend, you know you gotta keep the faith (Hold on)
So soon it will end and you will see it was worth the wait (Hold on)
And I say…

SHARLOK POEMS:
Striving and struggling, hustling, bustling
Hard working to get nothing, huffing and puffing
Standing for something falling for nothing
Survive this fight for life kicking and punching

JOEY THE JERK:
Because we must win in the end through perseverance
I’ll only be hearing the uplifting and cheering

COOKBOOK:
Up with me in here in the studio writin
It’s fear that you’re feelin and urges that you fightin
That’s why you were flyin to L.A. cause you tryin
To leave the life in the past that had your homey dyin
Don’t forget the times when oasis gave you vision
Hold on to decision you made to change your livin

CHORUS

JOEY THE JERK:
Nothing can break us
Nothing can stop us
Hold on like pit bulls’ lockjaws cause
There is a hope for a better day, a better us, a better way

UNO MAS:
Here today, gone the next
These days ain't promised so we live it to the very best
Speak the truth, bring the hope
You're feelin' empty in your soul but you gotta cope
Understand there's a plan
A gift of life was given freely through the Son of Man

SHARLOK POEMS:
Now raise your hands, touch the sky
Give praise to Yahweh, the Most High

CHORUS

FLYNN:
So I'm pushin along even though the same song
Got me thinking it's all wrong, insane to remain calm
Time is ticking like a bomb, final warning came and gone
Split decision with precision now I'm a James Bond
Positioned with a mission to maintain, just stay on
Course, in short my homies I hang on

JOEY THE JERK:
You’ll reach your destiny, you’ll reach your goal
Find that strength deep down in your soul
Hold on tight, never let go

SHARLOK POEMS:
Your warmth in the cold
Love makes us whole
Something to hold, precious as gold
Embrace the hand you've been dealt and never fold

CHORUS
